Perth Glory to Win

The Glory ended their miserable six-match winless run with a win against A-League's punching bags, Melbourne Victory. They can up the ante against Western United who have accumulated three defeats and a draw in their last four away outings. With United in dismal form, the fixture allowed Perth to avenge their 5-4 defeat at the start of the campaign.  Moreover, the January defeat will be fresh in Perth's mind, a source of extra motivation as they embark on climbing up the A-League points table.

Total Goals: Over 2.5

It was a high scoring affair the last time these outfits met. Richard Garcia's men were on the losing end of a 5-4 thriller in York Park. A similar end to this fixture's fate is expected. Perth have seen three or more goals in four of their last five home games. United have seen a similar record, with three of their four away trips seeing the Over 2.5 being realized.

Both Teams to Score: Yes

The two sides have met thrice in history, and the scorers were troubled by both in two. However, the last match at the HBF Park remains the anomaly, where United claimed victory with a 0-2 win. Since then, Perth have scored in eight of their ten competitive engagements at home, while United have scored in seven of their last ten away fixtures. Given their pedigree for conceding goals, expect attacking units to get plenty of chances of getting on the scoreboard.

Perth Glory vs Western United: Team News and Match Preview

Perth Glory

The Glory have struggled in the 2021 A-League season, and look unlikely to match their sixth-place finish last campaign. Richard Garcia has a tough task on his hands. While Perth have managed to get on the scoreboard with regularity, their defensive woes have kept them back. They are conceding at an average of 1.89 goals per game, bettered only by Melbourne Victory's 2.47. In addition, their attacking plans rest on the shoulders of 33-year-old Bruno Fornaroli, who ended his seven-match barren run with a goal against the hapless Victory.

Western United

United finished ahead of Perth last season but have seen similar misfortunes this campaign. Mark Rudan has failed to find the balance in his squad especially on the road. This has been highlighted in their successive defeats to WS Wanderers and Brisbane Roar. On the road again, they will have to improve at the back after their 5-0 demolishing by the Wanderers. Rudan will also have to inspire his squad for goals, especially with Besart Berisha failing to score in his last seven outings.
